Endless issues - Anonymous employee MLC Life Insurance Employee Review

Good colleagues, good STI/Bonuses’s and good flexibility.

Raising issues sometimes can be difficult depending on the leader

Only the trainers were nice and friendly

MLC is the the worst to work with. Horrible, heartless managers who don’t care about their employees. They pick on small little things and blame you for it. And no matter what explanation you give, they won’t buy it. And everyone has a different view point so you have to work to please everyone’s ego equally plus the workload pressure is insane. I did not have a social life at all, was working 10-12 hours a day and still had pending work. Even gave up one weekend to keep up with the tasks. They expected me to be at the level of their senior consultants straight after training. And did I mention the unnecessary force to come to office 3 days a week? Most of the old staff hardly come in 1-2 days a week (sometimes not at all) and the newcomers are being punished for not making it. And when I was hired, I was not even told that I was hired as a ‘forward recruit’ hence no specific team was assigned to me. I only came to know after I started training. They used me as long as they wanted to get the work done and asked me to leave as soon as they hired ‘permanent staff’.
